Bug fixes
| Area | Description | Id |
|---|---|---|
| Entities and filters | Entity filter grouping by date and time properties use UTC time instead of the system time zone. | 57690 |
| Framework | Uninstalling Movex/M3 iCore drivers does not completely remove the driver files from the disk. Note, however, that drivers that are already installed still need to be removed manually by deleting the files 'MvxSock.dll' and 'MvxSockX_SVR.dll' from the 'C:\Windows\SysWOW64' directory before installing a different version. | 66422 |
| Entities and filters | Entity filter grouping by property 'Lock time' on Components does not include the whole day, and the filter result for each group is always empty. | 68916 |
| Sysadm utility | An unnecessary confirmation prompt appears when the user attempts to create or update an iCore system with an unsupported SQL Server Version. | 70265 |
| Runtime and Service | Worker Host Manager enters failed state and Worker Hosts are orphaned, if ServerStartupOrphanPolicy is set to "KillWorkerHosts" and the Worker Host Job is set to "Lost". | 70880 |
| Runtime and Service | The Job Manager may stop processing Jobs when the primary Application pool is full, an asynchronous Job is first in the queue, and if a secondary Application pool is configured on the Component and all running Jobs are waiting on synchronous Jobs that are in the queue after the asynchronous Job. | 70881 |
| Runtime and Service | Temporary Worker Hosts are automatically closed if no Job execution request is received within a specified time frame (default 90 seconds). | 70884 |
| Web API Editor | A Web API Component definition created with 'Save As' has a host version always set to 2 (Latest), which leads to errors in the code if the original version is 1 (Legacy). | 72206 |
| Administrator | 'Export encrypted' entities from Administrator does not work. | 73149 |
| Runtime and service | There is a security vulnerability in an underlying package. | 74560 |
Known issues for iCPS v4.5.1 RTM
| Area | Description | Id |
|---|---|---|
| Runtime and Service | A Workflow built on a busy "while(true);" (without any i/o or waits) may generate error: [The communication object, System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel, cannot be used for communication because it is in the Faulted state.]. | 10269 |
| Runtime and Service | Reconfiguration of TCP endpoint of management service does not work after configuring an incorrect endpoint. | 19868 |
| Workflows | Workflow generated activities for web services using the SOAP RPC/Encoded format currently does not work as expected. | 20417 |
| Runtime and Service | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue applies to Workflows and Adapterflows. | 30942 |
| Installation | The iCore SAS service is still listed (but not running) after an update that removes the iCore SAS feature. | 33530 |
| Administrator | Entity row is not selected when navigating to a filter that is in grouped view and the URL contains the entity key. | 40872 |
| Cmdlets | After update of iCPS binaries, cmdlets may fail to run (both from the iCore Powershell console, and from Powershell console. Error message: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Collections.Immutable Version <version>). Closing the console and reopening it solves the problem. | 45044 |
| Web API Editor | Documenting Web API with code annotation <example> is not visible in Swagger UI. | 46942 |
| Framework | Mail messages downloaded via POP3 Object with options MailGetUidl or MailGetSize do not contain the correct values for these options. | 55186 |
| Runtime and Service | Existing Scripts using HTTP Client Object with SSL/TLS may stop working after upgrade. Error message: [Failed to send data to server using POST method; CommunicationException: [Error when sending HTTP Post request. Additional info: Invalid SSL version Error code: 0.]] This may occur in Scripts where HTTP Client Object is used with Protocol property set to "secprotAuto". On HTTP Client Object in Scripts, use the put_Protocol method to explicit point out the SSL/TLS version desired, for example TLS 1.3. | 56394 |
| Workflows | Workflows that contain a custom reference to the assembly 'System.Net.Http, Version=4.2.0.0' can only be compiled in Workflow Designer if the specified assembly version is not installed in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC). The assembly is automatically (and incorrectly) resolved to version 4.0.0.0 in the Workflow Designer, which is why the Workflow can still be compiled. Workaround: Open the Workflow in the Workflow Designer and save it, and the 4.2.0.0 version will be replaced with 4.0.0.0 which is installed with the .NET framework. | 57691 |

| Runtime and Service | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue applies to Workflows and Adapterflows. | 30942 |
| Installation | The iCore SAS service is still listed (but not running) after an update that removes the iCore SAS feature. | 33530 |
| Administrator | Entity row is not selected when navigating to a filter that is in grouped view and the URL contains the entity key. | 40872 |
| Cmdlets | After update of iCPS binaries, cmdlets may fail to run (both from the iCore Powershell console, and from Powershell console. Error message: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Collections.Immutable Version <version>. Closing the console and reopening it solves the problem. | 45044 |

| Framework | Mail messages downloaded via POP3 Object with options MailGetUidl or MailGetSize do not contain the correct values for these options. | 55186 |
| Runtime and Service | Existing Scripts using HTTP Client Object with SSL/TLS may stop working after upgrade. Error message: [Failed to send data to server using POST method; CommunicationException: [Error when sending HTTP Post request.

On HTTP Client Object in Scripts, use the put_Protocol method to explicit point out the SSL/TLS version desired, for example TLS 1.3. | 56394 |
| Workflows | Workflows that contain a custom reference to the assembly 'System.Net.Http, Version=4.2.0.0' can only be compiled in Workflow Designer if the specified assembly version is not installed in the Global Assembly Cache (GAC). The assembly is automatically (and incorrectly) resolved to version 4.0.0.0 in the Workflow Designer, which is why the Workflow can still be compiled. Workaround: Open the Workflow in the Workflow Designer and save it, and the 4.2.0.0 version will be replaced with 4.0.0.0 which is installed with the .NET framework. | 57691 |
| Entities | Some entity types, such as SOAP Web Service Clients and Workflows, cannot be compiled in the Administrator if SAS is running as Local System and the Compilation Work Directory for the system is configured as default, with %APPDATA% in the path. Workaround 1: Run SAS as a normal account, i.e. not "Local System". Workaround 2: Set the "Compilation work directory" of the system to a specific path without environment variables. | 58227 |

Error message: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Collections.Immutable Version <version>. Closing the console and reopening it solves the problem. | 45044 |

| Runtime and Service | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue is applicable to Workflows and Adapterflows. | 30942 |
| Runtime and Service | The POP3 Object in Scripts may in rare occasions encounter a timeout during Login and end up unusable. Error message: [Connection failed due to error 75777.] The POP3 Object must be re-instantiated before a successful Login can be made again. | 56349 |
| Runtime and Service | Existing SMTP-clients in Script, AdapterFlow and Workflow using SSL/TLS may stop working after upgrade. Error message: [Failed to send message. Additional info: Connection lost due to error 10054 Error code: 10054. Error code is unknown.] This may occur in AdapterFlows and Workflows where the activity Send e-mail is used, and Scripts where the SMTP Object is used. In Adapterflows and Workflows, update the property "SSL/TLS version" on the Send e-mail activity to explicit point out the SSL/TLS version desired, for example TLS 1.3. In SMTPObjects in Scripts, update the invoke of method Login so the parameter "SSLVersions" explicit points out the SSL/TLS version desired, for example TLS 1.3. | 56403 |
| Runtime and Service | Existing Scripts using HTTP Client Object with SSL/TLS may stop working after upgrade. Error message: [Failed to send data to server using POST method; CommunicationException: [Error when sending HTTP Post request. Additional info: Invalid SSL version Error code: 0.]] This may occur in Scripts where HTTP Client Object is used with Protocol property set to "secprotAuto". On HTTP Client Object in Scripts, use the put_Protocol method to explicit point out the SSL/TLS version desired, for example TLS 1.3. | 56394 |
| Workflows | If you are using a generated SOAP Web Service Client activity in a Workflow, and you have made any modifications to the Endpoint property (either via the editor, or manually in the XAML), these modifications will no longer work after upgrading to iCIS v4.2.5. Furthermore, specifying an Endpoint object of any kind to a SOAP Web Service Client activity in a Workflow has no effect after the upgrade. The activities will always use the default endpoint as configured in the Web Service Client. Currently no known workaround is available, other than using an Adapterflow to perform the communication. | 57207 |
| Entities | Some entity types, such as SOAP Web Service Clients and Workflows, cannot be compiled in the Administrator if SAS is running as Local System and the Compilation Work Directory for the system is configured as default, with %APPDATA% in the path. Workaround 1: Run SAS as a normal account, i.e. not "Local System". Workaround 2: Set the "Compilation work directory" of the system to a specific path without environment variables. | 58227 |
| Workflows and Adapterflows | Using private key as authentication method with some SFTP servers in Adapterflow and Workflow SFTP activities may fail. Workaround: Disable the following "Public key signature" algorithms in the SFTP server configuration: rsa-sha2-256 and rsa-sha2-512. | 58897 |
| Script and functions | The Data parameter of the Script function CreateExpressEvent is not used. | 59185 |

| Workflows and Adapterflows | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue is applicable to Workflows and Adapterflows. This may happen in a scenario similar to this: 1. An instance of System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 is used for loading a certificate (that contains a private key) from a file. 2. Then the factory method iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.Certificate.CreateFrom(X509Certificate2) is used to get an instance of iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.ICertificate. 3. The instance of iCore.Public.Crypto.X509Certificates.ICertificate is then used as input to an activity. The private key is lost once the instance of X509Certificate2 is garbage collected by the .Net framework. Workaround for Workflows: Declare a variable of X509Certificate2 in a scope activity (activity that has inner activities like sequence) to avoid garbage collection while activities that uses the certificate is executed.

| Workflows and Adapterflows | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue is applicable to Workflows and Adapterflows. This may happen in a scenario similar to this: 1. An instance of System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 is used for loading a certificate (that contains a private key) from a file. 2. Then the factory method iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.Certificate.CreateFrom(X509Certificate2) is used to get an instance of iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.ICertificate. 3. The instance of iCore.Public.Crypto.X509Certificates.ICertificate is then used as input to an activity. The private key is lost once the instance of X509Certificate2 is garbage collected by the .Net framework. Workaround for Workflows: Declare a variable of X509Certificate2 in a scope activity (activity that has inner activities like sequence) to avoid garbage collection while activities that uses the certificate is executed.

|---|---|---|
| Runtime and service | A Workflow built on a busy "while(true);" (without any i/o or waits) might generate error: [The communication object, System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel, cannot be used for communication because it is in the Faulted state.] | 10269 |
| Reconfiguration of TCP endpoint of management service does not work after configuring an incorrect endpoint. | 19868 | |

| Script and functions | Http Clients in Scripts does correctly decompress a compressed response when the responding server sends a 100 Continue header before the actual response. | 34847 |
| Workflows and Adapterflows | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue is applicable to Workflows and Adapterflows. This may happen in a scenario similar to this: 1. An instance of System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 is used for loading a certificate (that contains a private key) from a file. 2. Then the factory method iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.Certificate.CreateFrom(X509Certificate2) is used to get an instance of iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.ICertificate. 3. The instance of iCore.Public.Crypto.X509Certificates.ICertificate is then used as input to an activity. The private key is lost once the instance of X509Certificate2 is garbage collected by the .Net framework. Workaround for Workflows: Declare a variable of X509Certificate2 in a scope activity (activity that has inner activities like sequence) to avoid garbage collection while activities that uses the certificate is executed. Workaround for Adapterflows: Not available. | 30942 |

Known issues for iCPS v4.1 RTM
Below is a list of known issues and bugs.
| Area | Description | Id |
|---|---|---|
| Runtime and service | A Workflow built on a busy "while(true);" (without any i/o or waits) might generate error: [The communication object, System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel, cannot be used for communication because it is in the Faulted state.] | 10269 |
| Reconfiguration of TCP endpoint of management service does not work after configuring an incorrect endpoint. | 19868 | |
| Workflows | Workflow-generated activities for web services using the SOAP RPC/Encoded format currently does not work as expected. | 20417 |
| Script and functions | Http Clients in Scripts does correctly decompress a compressed response when the responding server sends a 100 Continue header before the actual response. | 34847 |
| Workflows and Adapterflows | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue is applicable to Workflows and Adapterflows. This may happen in a scenario similar to this: 1. An instance of System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 is used for loading a certificate (that contains a private key) from a file. 2. Then the factory method iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.Certificate.CreateFrom(X509Certificate2) is used to get an instance of iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.ICertificate. 3. The instance of iCore.Public.Crypto.X509Certificates.ICertificate is then used as input to an activity. The private key is lost once the instance of X509Certificate2 is garbage collected by the .Net framework. Workaround for Workflows: Declare a variable of X509Certificate2 in a scope activity (activity that has inner activities like sequence) to avoid garbage collection while activities that uses the certificate is executed. Workaround for Adapterflows: Not available. | 30942 |
| SAS Service | The iCore SAS servie is still listed (but not running) after an update that removes the iCore SAS feature. | 33530 |
| Cmdlets | After update of iCPS binaries, cmdlets might fail to run (both from the iCore Powershell console, and from Powershell console.\ Error message: Could not load file or assembly 'System.Collections.Immutable Version 1.2.1.0. Closing the console and reopening it solves the problem. | 38332 |
| Import and Export | User groups cannot be imported because of an error that occurs during validation. Error: [Unexpected error, InvalidCastException: [Unable to cast object of type 'iCore.Common.Entities.Serialization.SerializablePermissionGrant' to type 'iCore.Common.Entities.Serialization.Serializable'] | 40152 |
| Web Administrator | User groups cannot be imported [Unexpected error, InvalidCastException:[Unable to cast object of type'iCore.Common.Entities.Serialization.SerializablePermissionGrant'to type 'iCore.Common.Entities.Serialization.Serializable']] | 39222 |

For this reason, Scripts that contain AddAttribute methods of XML Writer Attributes Collection Object and have namespace prefix joined together with 'BaseName' using a colon (:) are updated so the namespace prefix is moved to the proper 'Namespace Prefix' argument. Note that if the namespace prefix is not declared using the AddNamespacePrefixMapping method, a runtime error will still occur when using the collection in XML Writer Object. To fix this problem, add the mapping using the AddNamespacePrefixMapping method on XML Writer object. | 38185 |
| XML Parser schema validation fails when parsing XML data using schema imported from a Web API Client (REST) which contains imports of external schema files. Error example: ParseURL method on XML Parser object failed; XmlSchemaValidationException: [Type 'http://microsoft.com/wsdl/types/:guid' is not declared.] This happens when the Web service client (REST) has loaded its definitions from a Web API published by iCore. | 38242 | |
| Web API Editor | Double-clicking a Web API in the Open dialog does not open the Web API definition. | 38202 |
| Web API | When compiling a Web API, a reference to iCore.Common is added. | 38611 |
| A running Web API does not have access to the files appsettings.json and app.config. | 38631 | |
| Developer | Importing XML Schemas from some Web Service REST Clients fails with error message "Failed to import structure definition". | 38240 |
| It is not possible to update an imported Xml schema from a Web Service client with schemas from another Web service client of a different version. | 38246 | |
| SysadmUtil | System upgrade incorrectly reports error "Web service clients were not compiled successfully" when failing to update all Web APIs. | 38607 |

| Script and functions | Http Clients in Scripts does correctly decompress a compressed response when the responding server sends a 100 Continue header before the actual response. | 34847 |
| Workflows and Adapterflows | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue is applicable to Workflows and Adapterflows. This may happen in a scenario similar to this: 1. An instance of System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 is used for loading a certificate (that contains a private key) from a file. 2. Then the factory method iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.Certificate.CreateFrom(X509Certificate2) is used to get an instance of iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.ICertificate. 3. The instance of iCore.Public.Crypto.X509Certificates.ICertificate is then used as input to an activity. The private key is lost once the instance of X509Certificate2 is garbage collected by the .Net framework. Workaround for Workflows: Declare a variable of X509Certificate2 in a scope activity (activity that has inner activities like sequence) to avoid garbage collection while activities that uses the certificate is executed. Workaround for Adapterflows: Not available. | 30942 |

Known issues for iCPS v4.0
| Area | Description | Id |
|---|---|---|
| Runtime and service | A Workflow built on a busy "while(true);" (without any i/o or waits) might generate error: [The communication object, System.ServiceModel.Channels.ServiceChannel, cannot be used for communication because it is in the Faulted state.] | 10269 |
| Reconfiguration of TCP endpoint of management service does not work after configuring an incorrect endpoint. | 19868 | |
| Workflows | Workflow-generated activities for web services using the SOAP RPC/Encoded format currently does not work as expected. | 20417 |
| Script and functions | Http Clients in Scripts does correctly decompress a compressed response when the responding server sends a 100 Continue header before the actual response. | 34847 |
| XML validation fails when using schema specified with 'noNamespaceSchemaLocation' attribute. | 35707 | |
| Workflows and Adapterflows | When a certificate's private key is created from System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2, the key is lost. The issue is applicable to Workflows and Adapterflows. This may happen in a scenario similar to this: 1. An instance of System.Security.Cryptography.X509Certificates.X509Certificate2 is used for loading a certificate (that contains a private key) from a file. 2. Then the factory method iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.Certificate.CreateFrom(X509Certificate2) is used to get an instance of iCore.Public.Crypto,X509Certificates.ICertificate. 3. The instance of iCore.Public.Crypto.X509Certificates.ICertificate is then used as input to an activity. The private key is lost once the instance of X509Certificate2 is garbage collected by the .Net framework. Workaround for Workflows: Declare a variable of X509Certificate2 in a scope activity (activity that has inner activities like sequence) to avoid garbage collection while activities that uses the certificate is executed. Workaround for Adapterflows: Not available. | 30942 |
| SAS Service | The iCore SAS service is still listed (but not running) after an update that removes the iCore SAS feature. | 33530 |
